Meta Search Script?

Hey,

Does anyone know any simple to use meta search scripts which wont accuiqrw a lot of programming to get it to work?

Thanks

 

Don't know what you exactly means, but I understand it as you're trying to access meta tags on a webpage.

It is actually pretty simple, PHP got a meta tag function: get_meta_tags

So, load the website into a variable ($source), and say: $meta = get_meta_tags($source);

Now you can access the meta tags with the array $meta. So, if you want to print the "keywords" meta tag, you use echo $meta[keywords];

 

Hey,

Thanks for your reply,

I mean like a Meta Search engine where it searches the web with an API with yahoo or live.

Something like that?

Thanks

 

Here's a one page script that uses the Yahoo API. If you use it be sure to get your own App ID (free from Yahoo) and replace mine with yours (appid=).

You could also look at this PHP class:

Registering to the website is free, and that class is actually pretty neat. With search suggestions and more
